A cool plastic model of Wonder Woman made by Aurora in 1966. Sales of this kit were dismal and it appears that young boys just weren't interested in woman superheros. Wonder Woman is controling the menancing octopus with her magic lasso. A truly cool 60s kit!

A really cool classic toy from the 60s produced by Marx Toys. Garloo was a very large battery operated that retailed for a whopping $17.98 in 1961! That was a ton of money! You can steer Garloo with the little steering wheel on the remote control on his battery box, move him forward or backward, open or close his arms and make him bend over to pic up objects. Marx also put out a 3 inch metal and plastic wind-up called Son of Garloo. Tags:marxvintagegarlooclassic60sAdded: 20th August 2007Views: 4382Rating:Posted By:dezurtdude

'I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas', was sung by an 11-year-old girl, Gayla Peevey, who according to legend, was a regional child star of the Oklahoma City area. This 1953 hit was recorded as a fund-raiser to bring the city zoo a hippo. When released nationally by Columbia Records the song shot to the top of the charts, and the city zoo got a baby hippo named Matilda! This is the first Christmas song I remember hearing on a little plastic record player I had as a kid, I was 7.

This is just one of the sketches taken from a show called "Spitting Image" a satirical puppet show from the UK. This show was very popular in the 80's and 90's. Cruel it may be but it wasn't as bad as some tabloids would have you believe. Tags:SpittingImageUKTVAdded: 10th February 2008Views: 1322Rating:Posted By:donmac101
